A Diver, a Yachtman and an Aviator walk into a bar...

So pumped to have this trio. They’re all so different and I enjoy them tremendously. If I can land a Daytona panda next year I’ll be thrilled.

Nice set. Hoping we’re not on the same short list for the panda. I too am trying to round out my collection of SS watches and have the sub and gmt. Good luck!

Love all these, well done.

Curious how does the YM compare to the sub and gmt as I don’t have experience with those two but I absolutely love the YM

That’s a SeaDweller but I have experience with the SubC so i can answer. The YM wears smaller than the Sub and GMT because the lugs are slimmer and the case has beautiful curves to it unlike the Sub and GMT cases which are more angular in design. The YM is extremely comfortable. For what it’s worth i hated the YM for many years until I saw it in person and it was a must have for me. The case reminds me very much of the Daytona.

Great looking trio.
Interested in your comments re the YM, I agree you need to see and try it to fully appreciate it. A fantastic watch in my view.

Sweet collection! Even if the Daytona does not come ... you should be thrilled with those.

Question: if you could keep only one ... which?

That’s a good question and a tough one to answer. I’m gonna surprise you and go YM! That rhodium dial with the touch of blue accents really speaks to me.

What are they doing in a bar? Don’t they know about the lockdown?

Congrats OP, lovely trio.

The YM is my favorite out of those 3. Haha I keep seeing all these YM post and it makes me really want to get mine even more! I hope things clear up soon so my AD can reopen. Thanks for sharing!

Not surprising ... the YM is a stunner!

I have the same BLNR and thinking of adding the YM blue dial to compliment it (yes, my favorite color is blue).

And blue. Good luck i hope you get one!!

But to me it is. Just like the Batman on jubilee is a Batman.
